Petting Zoo: Rooster Crowing Contest

Haakon Vaadeland is a 3rd generation crowing coach. His job on competition day is to help all the birds competing to feel comfortable to crow as many times as they can in 30 minutes.

Volunteers from the crowd count how many times each bird squawks.

At the end of 30 minutes it came down between these two birds, but Buster pulled through with one final crow - winning 32-31.
